The Railway Series is a series of British books about a railway known as the North Western Railway, located on the fictional Island of Sodor. There are 42 books in the series, the first published in May 1945 by the Rev. Wilbert Awdry. Twenty-five more books were written by Awdry, the final one being written in October 1972. Sixteen more were written by his son, Christopher Awdry, between September 1983 and July 2011. The series features many anthropomorphic vehicles, including Thomas the Tank Engine. Thomas became the most popular character in the series and the titular character of the television series Thomas & Friends from 1984 to 2021. Many characters and stories from the books formed the basis of the children's television series.

Los libros fueron escritos por el reverendo Wilbert Vere Awdry (1911-1997), que escribió los primeros 26 libros y creó junto a su hermano la historia ficticia de Sodor, y su hijo , al cual le contaba las primeras historias cuando era pequeño y que continuó con la labor de su padre escribiendo los libros del 27 al 41 (que es el último escrito hasta la fecha). Los protagonistas principales son un grupo de locomotoras antropomorfizadas, aunque también hay más vehículos, las cuales viven diversas situaciones propias de los ferrocarriles como son los accidentes aunque no tan serios, o atascos. Todos ellos basados en hechos reales ferroviarios. (es)
